SHAKER ATTACHMENT FOR TUMBLERS, 840.y

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters PatentwNo. 628,904, dated July A11, 1899.

Application filed May 22, 1899.

To all wtont it may concern:

Be it known that I, WILLIAM EDSON, of Boston, in the county ol Suiolkand State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and useful Improvementin Shaker Attachments for Tumblers, dsc., of which the following, takenin connection with the accompanying drawings, is a specification.

My invention relates to a device to be used in connection with tumblersor similar vessels when it is desirable to `mix I'luid or othercompounds by shaking, the object being to make a simple cheapcombination that may be used in connection with ordinary tumblers toform a complete shaking or mixing device. This object I attain by meansof the mechanism shown in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1shows in elevation two tumblers having an improved shaker attachmentbetween them. Fig. 2 shows one ot' the shaker attachments in'perspective.- Figs. 3 and I are sectional views ot' the same. Fig. 5 isa plan of one ot' the shaker attachments having a strainer attached.Fig. y6 is a vertical Section of a cup or cap that can be used in placeof one of the tumblers.

A and B represent two ordinary tumblers, one of which is inverted,having a shaker attachment C between them. The Shaker attachmentconsistsof a metallic rim having inturned edges L L, which, it' desired, mayinclose wires W, or the wires may be omitted, as shown in Fig. 4. Theraised edges L L serve the purpose of detachably holding the rubber ringD in place, and they also serve to keep the two tumblers' A and B inposition While in use.

From the above it may be Seen that the Serial No. 717,885. (No model.)

LBERT G.

shaker consists of two parts, one of which, C, 4o

is made of metal So formed as to detaohably hold the ru bber part D andalso to form raised beads L L, which serve to keep the tumblers in placein the action of shaking. The other part, D, is ot' Soft rubberandeasily detachable from the rim C, so that as it becomes worn or soiledit can be readily replaced or cleansed. In Fig. 5 a strainer E is shown,which may be used, if desired.

In place of the upper tumbler A a metal top piece III, Fig. 6, may beused. This top piece has a detachable cap K and a strainer S and is sowell known as not to need further description.

To use -this improved device, the ingredients to be mixed are placed inone ot' the tumblers-B, for instance. Then the shaker C is placed uponthe top of the tumblerand a second tumbler A is inverted and placed asshown in Fig. l. Now the two tumblers are rmly held together and shakenuntil the contents are completely mixed and ready for use.

I claim- In a shaker attachment for tumblers, &c., the combination of aring having an internal annular groove adapted to detachably hold anelastic packing-ring, and having raised edges adapted to hold thetumblers in place, wit-h a detachable elastic packing-ring;substantially as and for thepurpose set forth.

In testimony whereof I have signed m-y name to this Specification, inthe presence of two subscribing witnesses, on this th day of May, A. D.1899.

WILLIAM EDSON. Witnesses:
